It's hard to believe some folks refuse to comprehend this..
If the dude ran outside after the attack and became the attacker then he broke the law.

A lot of us, including myself, are commenting on the stupid CT law, not the specifics of this case.

Making it illegal to defend yourself just takes away a ton of incentive to not commit a crime.

This is a ridiculous state law. I guess living in a liberal state has many negative consequences!

The right to self defense is a natural right. No state can take that away.
Great Britain has.

Would love for a truly constitutional SCOTUS to hammer the shite out of that law.
There is no constitutional provision regarding self-defense. Criminal law is nearly all within the purview of the states.
